Sadness But Happiness...

Why I'm Down In The Dumps


Well, when I came back home from a great day of school (it was pretty fun), I checked out my game site to see if my friend Winston had upgraded the logo. But I got much worse than that. I discovered that Winston had uploaded a new page to the site (I had no idea he had this page until now) and it was resignation letter thing. I will keep the letter. It means a lot to me and I understand why Winston would resign from the team. Thanks for all your help Winston, if you've read this. I totally understand why you are resigning (however I kind of feel discouraged after what you wrote, even though you wrote, "I don't mean to discourage you guys" or something like that) and I will miss your logos and great work for the team.

So What Do I Do Now?


Now I have no designer. That's just great (and I mean "great" in a sarcastic way). I guess that I will have to take on the role as head designer. That's double the work and for me, it's a heck lot of more work for me. It will take a while before I can get up the new logo. I'm hoping that Winston will at least give me the background picture for the site. I will just work on updating the text in the logo.

Time For The Happy Things


Don't give me a pity party alright (although I think most of you guys wouldn't)? I did have a great time at school today. I did try to spread around a new handshake (it's basically just a duck imitation kind of thing...) after school and there are a few more topics that I would like to tickle your minds with before I have to start my homework.

Spreading Joy One Hello At A Time


Here is the first topic about mind ticklers. Hello's. I personally think (and I will also write about other personal thoughts) that we should have (not the crush type of personal thoughts though!) much more hello's in the world. Hello's make a person's day a lot better. Here I will feature a bunch of people. Two construction men, a teacher and a random dude. So I was in the hallway (not ditching school though =P) and I saw a teacher. Now, I don't really know many people that say hello to teachers in the hallway by their own will (but I have seen teachers make students say hello =P). But I'm a student who does like to do that. And after I said hello, the teacher smiled. Which I think she might have been forced to (out of manners) do, but probably not. When I was walking home, I encountered a man who was just walking and I said, "Hi!" and then he stopped and smiled ("Stopped and smiled" sounds like a good lyric line for a song... I'm getting off topic). And that was pretty cool. And the last time I would say hello would be when I walked pass two construction workers and cheerfully (maybe a bit too cheerfully) said, "Hello". This time though, one of the construction workers struck a conversation with me and it was a good one (I'm not going to go into details though, because I'm kind of tired of this topic... aren't you?). So I think that you guys should all say hello to anybody that you meet (imagine doing that in a busy side walk with loads of people though...). Let's call this the Hello Challenge! Next Wednesday, please comment on the latest post saying, "I said hello to random person __ times". Please be truthful and please don't count saying hello to your friends (although I'm sure that you do).

The Last Mind Tickler


So I'm going to make this last subject quick and snappy (although it will go on for a long time in other posts). Whenever you want to find out about what I seriously think should change in the world, just check out a new category (or as Blogger calls it, a label) called Personal Thoughts. Anyways, this mind tickler will be about what people at my school do. It's just weird. People sack people with their hands or knees, intend to or pretend to. Little kids in kindergarten swear even more violently than grade seven. There was this little boy (although I will not mention his name) who stuck his fist up my... thing. It's really worrying me. I don't understand why people actually like to swear. Why do they do it? Do they think they're cool because they say that? Do they think calling people homo is cool? Well I think it's incredibly stupid of them. It's stupid. The latest few jokes that I have heard always started with, "Your momma so fat that..." and that's hurtful. People take it seriously and if you're one of those people who say that, then I will call you an Attentioner. It's a phrase that my brother made up. Here's the definition.

Attentioner (uh-ten-shuhn-ner)
Noun
1. A stupid person who takes pleasure in swearing, hurting people physically and purposely and hurting another person's feelings just for attention.

Well, that's it for now. Remember the term that my brother made up (thanks Raymond and get your arm better!) and the definition.
